That's something I haven't considered. I may do just that, thanks so much!

Thanks so much for doing this, first of all! I'm sorry if this is too long.

My brother, who lives in the house with my father and I, has diagnosed ADHD, OCD and Borderline Personality Disorder. He's been committed to the Mental Health ward of a hospital on a couple occasions. Our mother had all of these disorders and more, and is cut off from our entire family because of her manipulative behaviors (my sister and I are lucky to only have ADHD). He's been fired from or stormed out of every job he's ever had because of his temper and impulsiveness. Each time it was his supervisor's fault, and he was apparently a model employee. He gets incredibly upset anytime anything goes wrong or if he is ever criticized, stomping and slamming and screaming at you with any insult he can until he gets his way. He spent the last 5 years gaslighting my father and I before I stumbled across your article about it a few months back.

My father and I are at an impasse with him. He refuses to acknowledge there's a problem, and blames me for the situation. He refuses any help period, makes excuses not to take any medication and is consistently rude and condescending in conversation if you even try talking, all to the point where I have cut him out of my life entirely even though he lives 10 feet from me.

What can we do, or should we do, with someone like this? We're literally the only family he has, so we put up with it for that reason. Any sort of help you can provide would do wonders!
